Natural Disaster (Muse)

[IndieSinger]

I've tried my favourite TAB sites and Googling, but no luck - has anyone got the correct chords for this song?

At the moment, for the intro, I am using (Low -> High) XX7650 then XX5430, XX7650, XX8760 and then 577650 when the words kick in. The bit I can't get right is the F#m-ish and Gm-ish bit when the words are "You are a natural disaster/I've wanted you too much/And now I'm gonna lose" etc. Can anyone give the correct chords? And any info on the first chords I mentioned.

well i downloaded a version from bearshare which sounds live (acoustic guitar and drums played with brushes: french radio?) and I heard A to Bb (x02220 to x03330)then a D with F# root to G (200232 to 320022) then F# to B to G (244322 to x2444x to 355433) then I got bored listening...

A lot of their live music comes from gigs they've done in France. This sounds like a simplified version though and I'm after the version on the album. Thanks a lot, though :)

Actually the D with the added low F# fits quite well, just need to make it sound a tad more minor-y. I think the G is G5, which is annoying, 'cause it flows less well when playing. Gm fits better than G, though.

I bet it's D with the F# root to G though... F# to G on the two E strings and the classic G with the D in the B string hmm?

Appologies, I posted that last comment before I saw your reply. I will try to locate the album version which may have different fingering. How do you define G5? BTW, my G is wrong: 320033 not 320022!!

Hehe yeah I had amazing fun trying to play that weird and wonderful chord. Then I thought to myself that you'd gone mad and there was no way that chord was correct, then it struck me that you'd obviously mistyped it and I was being a ninny. Haha "ninny". I haven't used that word for ages. I define G5 usually as 355XXX. I think in this song it would be palm-muted too (as 5th chords tend to be when played on a distorted electric guitar). Not sure about the live version (will download it soon) but this section is mainly bass guitar (aside from one single acoustic strum) so you have to immitate that, really.
